Shark presents a scenic and gestural apparatus that enclosures a technical mechanism for a public execution, in an approach to the invisibility of violence, leading to a process of empathy, vulgarization and to the sensation of coercion. This action consists of a series of operations on inanimate materials – trash, debris and objects – which are normalized, invested with a cargo, gathered and agglomerated as bodies and finally executed as such.
SHARK * The Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge is the first PIECE of the trilogy REI about archetypes of power and violence.
